Movie Connections:

Followed by "Alias Smith and Jones" (1971)

One of the Best westerns ever produced!

I have watched this movie many times over the years and I can tell you it is very good. Makes you laugh. makes you root for the 2 guys who are trying to go straight. Pete Duel is terrific and I have always been sad to know he is no longer with us. I cried for days after his death, so much so that my parents were worried as to my fate. They watched me like a hawk but I would of never did as he did. I still love him and watch all of his old movies and tv stuff either it be on tv land or the video tape I have of Alias Smith and Jones. I never could accept Roger Davis as his replacement, I tried to watch really I did but it wasn't the same without Pete. I was always reminded of why Roger was there instead of him. Thank you, Pete, for the time you did give us.
